For the truthers, listen to this. Perhaps your paradigm changes. This is the most important 30 minutes in the last 7 days. Every Auburn fan needs to listen to this.

It's no wonder our defense was so bad this year if that is true. No idea, but it's surprising to me since a lot of the coaches on the team actually owe Gus a lot and would not be in the position they are without him.

Ateast make their programs give them a raise. Sorry but I just think Mario is above a lot of these guys in various categories and it's an awful miss for us. Like it or not, its the baggage they carry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the players running around like wild fools had nothing to do with him. It’s a lot of blame at the feet of Briles, he is in no way innocent. But that’s a discussion for somewhere else.

That was one of the dumbest decisions I’ve ever seen in a football game Worse than Kirby's fake punt? All coaches make horrible decisions. It's how you learn to be better.

Something we haven't done in going on 8 years. Let's not go overboard here. he won the conference with a 4-2 record. Not sure that is killing it. Plus it is the Pac 12. Plus AU beat them a year ago when they had all that talent. I like MC. I would have been happy if he was our coach, esp, from a recruiting standpoint., but he hasn't crushed the coaching thing.

meh130 1,053 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 After listening to the Jboy/Rob Shuler podcast, I fear any coaching change that does not wipe the deck clean of every existing coach will end up being a huge problem. Shuler’s idea of an independent investigation/audit is necessary. This can be done in compete confidence, and problematic people can be given the choice of being eased out protecting their reputations, or if they resist being eased out, they can be publicly removed for cause.

It's smart because it keeps your star shining bright and doesn't risk it fading like it does quick when guys take bad jobs and don't do well. See jeff scott at south florida thks season. Yeah, I remember when Chad Morris was the hottest name out there as OC at Clemson. Did OK at SMU but look what Arkansas did for him. Here it is 6 years later and he’s about to be out of a job equal or less than the one he had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Def reeks of dabo trying to control the narrative on this on ahead of their game tonight. They aren't sitting power 5 head coaches. Of course they are going to get interviews. They are hot coordinators. Don't get the reason they have to put this out there to the media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBourne 425 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I finally watched the briefing with Kevin Steele discussing the recruiting class. The AU media guys gave him a lot of praise for his performance. Yet I was annoyed right away due to his mental pauses and saying "uhh" every 3 words. It was so annoying. I question the motive of the people that praised him for that performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quietmaninthecorner 1,945 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 seriously, Would someone that knows a lot about all these coaches answer a few questions for me? 1 How many SEC teams currently have a head coach that was hired directly from OC or DC? 2 how many SEC teams have head coaches that were hired from lower division or much smaller schools? 3 How many SEC teams currently have a head coach that was hired away from being a HC at a major conference?

AuCivilEng1 11,026 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 So on the Jboy cast, who was the coach Gus said needed to resign and the guy said “fire me”. He wouldn’t have asked Steele to resign. Steele was his most popular coach. The offense staff was all his guys, so I don’t see them talking to Gus like that.

I may be off here, but it sounded like they were saying it was Steele. That he had the money backing him and dared Gus to fire him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
